Thanks for pointing that out @mrsbettybowers.bsky.social.

Why am I not surprised?

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.

You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

I agree @donshantajr.bsky.social. I bet it would make a great difference in Ukraine as well. Slava Ukraini

Call everyone you know with influence. Schedule a Zoom call. Speak with one voice. Call a General Strike that lasts a week.

It will end the shutdown & the Trump Regime.

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

When was the last time you heard Farage say anything positive about Britain?

He can’t, as he doesn’t like or believe in Britain. He wants you to doubt it as much as he does.

That's like saying give tax breaks to the rich during a recession so they will hire more people...

to do what? make more stuff that people already aren't buying?

Jess Piper @piperformissouri.bsky.social · 1d

I feel like a broken record, but I have to keep saying it over and over again: a farmer bailout won’t do much of anything because the market is gone. There will be no incentive to plant next year.

The bailout will help payoff farmer debt to the banks. That’s all.

It is, in fact, our right to do so. I suspect there is another reason as well. It is a rehearsal for #Election2026. The guard will be deployed to blue cities and stationed near deep blue polling stations...

to keep people from voting.

Senator Bernie Sanders @sanders.senate.gov · 2d

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.
